19、词修饰动词。4. while 这里是两种语言的对比,用转折连词while。(两者对比常用并列连词while)5. but 空的前后是两个分句,故填连接词。根据两句间的逻辑关系可知此处存在一个转折关系,故填but。6. as 根据句意可知,此处是指“正如300年前不列颠人使用的一样”。just as在此意为“正如”,引导方式状语从句。7. ending 分析句子成分可知,动词end在此作非谓语。end在此与逻辑主语British English and American English是主动关系,故填ending作结果状语。8. greater 这是一个隐性比较级。句意:在口语方面的不同之处就更大了。9. they 缺少主语填代词,they在此指代前面的Americans。10. understanding 介词后的动词需用动名词形式。
